has
so

them

What
we

human
eye
can't
see
every
colour
out
there.
Scientists
think
most
people
can
see
about
1
million
different
colours,
but
some
people
can
actually
see
100
million!

When sunlight hits the ocean, the water
molecules suck in all the other colours
except for blue. The blue light is
scattered, so the water looks blue.
But you need a lot of deep water
for this to happen—
much more than
in a glass.

Do
you
have
a

If?"
question?
What
if
dinosaurs
still
existed?
What
if
teleporting
was
real?
